NFS mount issue with HPUX 11.31

[ragesh_3]

Hi All ,

Need your help to identify the issue of mounting nfs share (AIX )with HPUX 11.31.

I am suspecting an added security feature with 11.31 blocking me to mount an AIX-nfs share.

Can any one help me ?

P.S. This thread ahs been moevd from HP-UX > System Administration to HP-UX > networking. - Hp Forum moderator

What errors are you getting? Are you using the FQDN?

[merieux]

Can you post the result of the commands :
rpcinfo -p
rpcinfo -p hostdistant

[merieux]

sorry , "remote host" instead hostdistant .

2) # rpcinfo -p remotehost
rpcinfo: remotehost: n2a: hostname not found

[ragesh_3]

when I am trying to mount it returns with
nfsmount :servername:/path

[John Guster]

can you post how you configure the NFS server on AIX as well as how you mount the NFS fron HP system? It is one of those things not configured right.

[ragesh_3]

Hi ,
I have done following checks

1) Tried to mount AIX-NFS share other version of HPUX (11.23) . worked

2) Tried to Mount HPUX- NFS share with HPUX 11.31 . worked

There is no issue with Server and client configuration

[ragesh_3]

When I am trying to mount 11.31 with AIX NFS Share it is not happing ..

Hi Ragesh,

merieux meant that you post the o/p of "rpcinfo -p ", so please post that o/p. It will be very helpful if you can post the exact error.

Thanks,
Pulse001

[Pulse001]

Also please try to NFS mount by using IP instead of hostname. It will eliminate some of the issues with name lookup.(just for testing)

[ragesh_3]

Please find the o/p : rpcinfo

I have already tried with IP address .But Same issue ..

I faced this problem also and after adding the client hostname at /etc/hosts file for the server it is solved

[sapoguheman]

Check if they are exported properly from the AIX(NFS server ) to HPUX (Client server) using showmount -e <AIX-SERVER>

you should get the list of exported file systems from AIX servers after you execute that command.

if you see that FS are visible on your client in showmount -e output then there is no issue with the exports.

try to re-export from AIX server again and check
